STEP 4: (optional) Clear your basket and cache.

Well, at first clear your basket. It is very usual, but necessary operation.
Simply right click on your basket and choose "Clear".

After that you have to clear the cache of your browser. For example, if you use Mozilla Firefox as I do, just go to menu Tools and run Options.
Open Privacy tab and check option 'Clear history when Firefox closes'

Then click Settings at this screen and check options 'Cookies' and 'Cache' as shown at picture.

After that click OK and close your browser's pages. All information in cache will be removed.
